Ivo on eggs, Iiris lands on the cam stand and calls. Change of guard on the nest. Iiris on eggsies now.

[visit]

Both times i can recognize only two eggs instead of three but perhaps/probably one was hidden.

The bird was there from 04:53 to 05:35 and it was Ivo He took off at 05:35 from that tree and came to the nest



Iiris would have not been so peaceful on the nest, if it had been another bird sitting there...

Sunshine, I can't quite figure that out; Ivo was on the nest at 5:25 when I took the screenshot; perhaps it was Iris on the far tree before she came back, then.

This is the time you say you made your snapshot.
There was no change meanwhile, Iiris is still on the nest, Ivo on top of the far tree
The bird in the dead tree (wood pigeon?) leaves at 05:26




Yes, I think it was a wood pigeon, see this white bar on the wings

Iiris still on the nest, takes off. Ivo comes over from top of the far tree at 05:35 and takes over incubation

Something is happening. Iiris is very nervous.

[HelenL44]

thanks Bea, Mogga and Sunshine for helping understand who was who. :-) I was sure it was Iiris, too, but I kept going back and forth between the cam and the forum (while writing my comment) and all of a sudden the osprey on the nest stood up and it was Ivo. They must have switched one of those minutes I was writing on the forum!

How interesting that Ivo was on that far tree--perhaps because the other birds were on the dead tree? Anyway, I appreciate you checking it out for me.

I think Iiris has by now the very same eager for calling Ivo than Irma used to have. It promises good for raising three osprets

20:35
A huge headless fish from Ivo! Iiris took away with it

[elisabetta-pamina]

20:30 Iiris calls for supper. Ivo, where are you?
20:34 Ivo arrives with gorgeous headless carp (?), Iiris very happy takes off
20:35 Ivo sits on eggs

These are videos. They are also there immediately if you follow the link. No problem anymore, I think streamable is ok, and Bea also recommended it (with youtube together), I think.
